Staying in the cramped changing room, thoughts were flying around. I was never an impulsive person, but right now the only thoughts running through my mind is to escape.I know that the dark lord's mansion is a fortress and I can never ever get a chance of escaping there. I wondered if the store has a backdoor that I could use. Luckily for me the helpful store attendant came back."Are you ok, miss?" She asked but I was already on factory reset mode, my instincts had taken full control and I wasn't sure if I was thinking straight."Is there a backdoor? I forgot something in the car and I wouldn't want Matteo to feel worried." I didn't know if it was due to the fact that Matteo and I had spent a small fortune on their store or not, but she gave me a million dollar smile, showing she was happy to help.Luckily for me, there was a backdoor, all I had to do was to go and hopefully pray Matteo will not enter the dressing room again for like five minutes. The lady escorted me out, and soon a
At that moment, I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. I was a goner, but Matteo's face looked slightly impressed."You're incorrigible." His voice boomed, I didn't know if I was in trouble or not, the woman who sold me out was no longer in the store, I wasn't sure if that was even a real flower store. I was scared yes, but I didn't regret shit, the only thing I regretted was not getting away with it."One thing you need to understand is that I own this town, this is my turf, my territory, you can never get past me." He was walking towards me and soon after we were face to face. "Don't be stupid." Suddenly, Viktor and some other guy held me by my hands, in an attempt to subdue me, that was when I started screaming."You scream again and I'll handcuff you." Do I really want to be handcuffed? No, so I kept quiet."Take her to the car, looks like Laura here needs twenty four hours monitoring." The men lifted me up, I was kicking my legs and screaming too, Matteo can never subdue
But then, he stopped halfway to the door and said without turning to face me, “Dinner will be served in an hour. Viktor will come for you.” And with that he deserted the living room.I didn't even wait to check if he was still lingering around, I ran straight to the room, I had already embarrassed myself enough.When I finally reached the room I fell straight on the bed and that was when tears started pouring out of my eyes. I carried a pillow and pressed it on my face in an attempt to stifle the sound of my screams. it was a scream of frustration and anger, I was beginning to suspect what Matteo wanted from me was to run mad.I went to the bathroom, took off my dress, and locked the door behind me, stepping into the shower and turning on the cold water. It was freezing—I could barely breathe, but after a while I got used to it. That was actually what I needed, cold water to jump start my brain again.I needed to cool off, the day had been one hell of an emotional rollercoaster. When
Coming out of the bathroom, my eyes were unable to decipher or even believe what they met—The bedroom was filled with dozens of boxes. I couldn't help but wonder when they brought all the boxes in. But the woman in me was also unable to not feel elated at the sight. In the past, I would have given everything to be able to go on a shopping spree like that. Nothing was going to stop me from enjoying this now. If Matteo was adamant in frustrating him, I would turn the tables around, frustrate the life out of the fucker.I had a plan, he claimed to be a rock, he wanted to be the one initiating our encounters, but boy does he have a shocker coming.I rummaged through everything, finally finding the lingerie bags and digging through the dozens of lingerie sets until I found the black lace one. From my days as a stripper I knew black fit me best, Rosita always said that the color black highlights my ginger hair.Then I picked a black see-through dress and a matching pair of Louboutin high h
Viktor arrived with Maria and a whole lot of other maids, they were waiting at the door, only to disappear an instant later. Soon after they reappeared and within seconds, the china and mess of food on the floor were cleaned and the table was rearranged.Two young women then showed up, serving us appetizers: it was a big salad-like looking bowl, with cheese, cured meat, and vegetables. I looked at it with confusion, though it looked very delicious."Antipasto." One of the women clarified, I said the name tasting it out on my tongue. It was delicious and delicate.Next, we were served pasta beef Ragu and a large amount of cheese for my plate. The meat was heavenly and I couldn't stop eating and the dishes that kept arriving were even better. Of course we had wine, it wouldn't be an Italian meal without it, but I didn't drink too much, I was already tipsy.The dinner was oddly quiet and the tension was so thick I could use a knife to cut through it, neither Matteo or I mentioned what
Matteo stood before me bare, wearing his emotions, literally because he wasn't putting on any clothes.His eyes held a lot of information that I couldn't even perceive, he stood stark naked in his Adam form and what was showing his genuinity in that conversation, he wasn't hard, that's a first. For the first time even though he was naked, he wasn't thinking with his dick, he wanted a real conversation not just mindless foreplay or possible sex, he wasn't playing any mind games or whatsoever it was just two people talking.He ran his fingers through his hair and I found myself staring at his magnificent body, gazing upon those biceps that he flexed unconsciously and into his very magnetic icy blue eyes.He was giving me a chance to ask him anything I wanted, but I had no idea on what to ask. I couldn't deny the curiosity that piqued me as I looked at him. There were so many possible questions to ask, the man was an enigma, he was intriguing and interesting, there were a lot of things
Matteo had a look of pride as he beamed at me, Enzo nervously smiled. I could tell he was embarrassed."I meant no disrespect Laura." He quickly apologized and I nodded. “But I won’t lie, this whole situation is a bit strange. Heaven knows I tried to change his mind when I found out. I did my best, but we all know I have no power over Matteo, so I had to accept it, not that I had a choice.”Matteo burst out laughing. "Not that you had a choice," he repeated."But this time I've seen that Matteo has bitten off more than he can chew," Enzo continued speaking. Matteo cocked an eyebrow at him. "I hope you give him a hard time like I do Laura." He finished and then embraced me in a tight hugThat was the point, Enzo. I didn't know if he had realized that the huge smile plastered on my face was fake. “I’m happy to meet your acquaintance, I’ll wait in the car so you can enjoy my absence,” I hissed, sending them both an ironic smirk. I then turned to Viktor, telling him to take me to the c
As my feet touched the ground, he discreetly grabbed my ass, pushing me gently to move forward. I sent him a shocked glance—that was behavior worthy of an adolescent boy or a horny highschool teenager not a freaking Mafia Boss. He was acting like a boy in love, a boy who can't get enough of his girlfriend and we both knew that wasn't the case.But he only smirked, sliding his hand up to my back and leading me forward. Leo was in our front, he was a very lazy tiger, stretching his paws as he walked.I was greeted by the sight of the dark lord's private jet. I didn't like flying but I would manage the jet, it was big and for some strange reason, the size canceled the feeling of flying. My first time flying was the day he bought me, but I paid no attention to the means of transportation that day, instead I did the situation. I looked at the huge private jet with his initials MR boldly plastered, as the blades revolved, I shivered. The whole scenario made it worse because I couldn't see
MATTEO (The Dark Lord)There she was again. Red haired, green eyes. Beautiful. Damn the way she moves.I don't know why, I couldn't help it, I just couldn't look away. Night after night, I found myself here, looking at her.There was something about her that I couldn't shake off, I needed to fuck her off me.She moved so confidently and with prescription, and when she mouthed those lyrics, I felt as if she was talking to me.I knew I was thinking with my dick but all I wanted was to pin her down on this fucking VIP glass and fuck her, looking down, I saw that I had gotten Matteo junior hard."Tell Antonio that I want that girl here." I said to no-one in particular but they all scurried around like lap dogs, no one wanted to defy me obviously.Soon after that, she came back in and I was jaw-dropped, she left very little to the imagination and the way she walked . . . . I was going to fuck her tonight and maybe just maybe I would stop seeing her in my dreams. But the girl was a little m
LAURA"Here," he said, pressing the passport into my hands. "This is our ticket to a new life. We can be whoever we want to be."I looked down at the passport, my heart racing. It had my picture but with brunette hair, but with a different name and date of birth, it held the name, Lacey Vincent's.It held new possibilities for me, to start a new life especially for the child inside me, he or she wouldn't know violence or wars. It was more than perfect.But how did he do this in less than twenty four hours? In recent times, I had learnt to not doubt Matteo, the man has his ways.Lacey sounds like a typical American name, someone who spends her fourth of June watching fireworks not dancing in a club. Lacey sounded like someone who probably was a virgin and had never been kidnapped or lost a baby before.I touched the passport and it looked authentic, Matteo gave me another one and it showed him, with a name, Marcus Kings. His picture had shorter hair and a look that didn't exude the dar
LAURAAfter a series of pointless questions, I was allowed to leave. I had seen that Matteo was alright and I guess it reduced my tension.I had imagined our wedding night, we would bang from dusk till dawn, but I guess karma had other plans. I was alone on our bed crying my eyes out."It had to be on our wedding day." I said between sobs, soon after the door opened revealing Maria, she came with a tray of food, but I didn't have any appetite. All I wanted was for Matteo to be by my side. "You haven't eaten all day." She said as she dropped the tray, the aroma was nice but I didn't want to eat. "The boss won't like it if you don't eat, he asked Viktor to take care of you, and Viktor asked me to make sure you ate." I shook my head.Though crying will not bring Matteo back I just couldn't control my emotions today.Maria brought a spoon of whatever was on the plate to my mouth, when I tasted it, the fish didn't sit well with my stomach and I immediately ran to the toilet to empty out m
LAURAThe moment I slipped into my wedding dress, I felt a sense of nostalgia wash over me. I think I've over stressed the fact that I never thought I was going to get married, but here I was."Don't cry now." Maria said wiping the makeup off my face with a wiper, she was careful enough not to ruin my makeup.I looked beautiful and the thought of it made me cry. I wonder what Matteo was feeling right now, I was hundred percent sure he wasn't crying but I wanted to know what he was feeling.The dress fit me perfectly, and I could feel the weight of the material. It was the main reason I didn't want to choose a ball dress, but I had to reduce my diet for a week so I could be able to fit into this dress. For some strange reason, I kept adding weight.I took a deep breath and looked at myself in the mirror. I felt like a princess, princess Ariel and I knew that today was going to be the best day of my life. The dress acted like a second skin clinging to my flesh as if it was clinging for
LAURADenero's shop smelled different today. I was overly excited to enter, after all I was going to pick my wedding dress.This week has been madly hectic, from picking colors to writing and sending out envelopes, to picking up the menu and other things.It was an Italian wedding, so everything had to be grand.There was a kind of stress that I enjoyed and this was it, Matteo was an excellent help, he was so invested in everything we were doing. Initially, I thought he wouldn't really care about wedding preparations but that wasn't the case, Matteo wanted to know every little thing, like the difference between sea green and teal.But I didn't want Matteo anywhere involved in the dress picking, he said that traditions can go to hell but I insisted otherwise. "So many dresses." Maria said as she ran into Denros' store ogling at the pretty wedding dresses he laid out.Maria dragged me to the dress rack, screaming as she touched the A1 quality dresses. Denero smiled, he always liked it
LAURABelieve it or not, this ex stripper was having an engagement party. And it was a fucking grand event. I didn't have the slightest idea on how to plan an engagement party, but Matteo helped me all the way.I touched the ring on my finger and a smile crept on my face.I had insisted that Maria would be part of the ceremony, not as a help but as my chief and only bridesmaid.I was getting emotional as I looked at myself in the mirror. Imagining if I were crying for my engagement party, what I would do for my main wedding.But who knew emerald green was my color? I honestly didn't. Denero was indeed a fashion genius.He had dress up Maria and I really nicely, my dress was an intricate piece, emerald green with thousand of emeralds adorning it, of course it was a mermaid style with a tight full corset, it had loose spaghetti straps and a heart shaped cleavage. What I loved about the dress was the way it made my waist nonexistent.The snatch looked so unnatural.The dress he got Maria
LAURA Waking up with Matteo on the bed felt great. I had recovered and sadly Sarah had gone back, I secretly missed her and wished for her presence.Matteo's hands were roaming around my body but I pretended to be asleep, the same way that I pretended to not see his hard on."I know you're awake Laura." He whispered seductively as his hands skimmed through my breast, thrusting the nipples, I felt his hot breath at the side of my neck, his other hand was on my stomach, moving down to my privates."Wake up Laura." He said yet again, my heart beat was high, and I felt a wave of heat down there.I hadn't had sex for a while, okay in a week, maybe a week wasn't too long but for Matteo and it felt like a century.Matteo didn't hesitate to kiss me on my neck, sucking and licking the right spot, I mistakenly let out a rogue moan. I felt Matteo smile on my neck."I knew it." He flipped me over and kissed me like he hadn't kissed me for a while. "Got me." I said between kisses.Matteo's hands
LAURAMaria embraced me in a tight hug, I could see the pain in her eyes, but she wasn't as sad as I was. Trust me"Ma'am Laura, I'm so sorry." She said but right now I didn't want anyone to talk about the child or anything. "What's your name please."' I said to the nurse who smiled at me, I hadn't even noticed how she looked, she had mousy brown hair tied up in a low ponytail and matching brown eyes that looked as if she was tired from shift after shift, her face was oblong and her pink lips thinned."Sarah." She said comfortably. She had a weird smile on her face. I guess she was uncomfortable, no one wants to be around a woman who lost her child.Matteo stood at the edge of the door with his always observant eyes, but I was seeing sincere sorrow in his eyes for the third time this month. First, when I was rescued and John Paul was confirmed dead, second was at John Paul's burial and third and last was when I woke up and our child was confirmed dead. A child I never knew I was havi
LAURAMy eyes fluttered open as I awoke from a deep sleep.Where was I? In heaven?I was disoriented and confused, unsure of where I was or how I had gotten there. I looked around and saw that I was in a hospital room, with machines beeping around me and a heart monitor showing my vitals. I remembered giving my life up for Matteo and then the last thing I saw was Matteo shooting Luca before I fell into total darkness.My Matteo! Was he fine? All I prayed for was that my sacrifice wouldn't be in vain.A nurse was checking my blood pressure and pulse, and a doctor was hovering nearby."Welcome back," the doctor said, with a smile. "How are you feeling?" I didn't know what to say.I tried to piece together what had happened, but everything was a blur. I didn't even know how I had gotten to the hospital."The gunshot had put you in a coma and you've been in a coma for the past few weeks." I felt a pressing touch on my free hand and when I turned, I saw it was Matteo still by my side. Tha
